Before you sign for the Malibu

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

Specs, explained

It runs the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Living with the Malibu

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The EPA lists 453 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

Who the Malibu suits

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Rent it for a week first

Rent the Malibu for a week and see how it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A test week in the Malibu tells you more than any review.

Money matters

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $120.90 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.09 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Year and trim

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
